New Arrow Rest
I currently have a NAP Quiktune 360 capture rest and i'm looking to get away from it. I was wondering what everyone thought would be a quality rest to get at a reasonable price. Should I be looking towards switching to a drop away type rest?

RE: New Arrow Rest
In regards to my problems with the 360, I think that it is basically a good design. It is nice not having to worry about the arrow coming off the rest in the stand no matter how u move the bow. However, with the amount of shooting I do the teflon on the rest does not hold up well at all and within a couple of days I have an arrow that is rubbing against metal. I also think that it is hurting my consistency by having an arrow constantly in contact with something as it passes through on the release.

EDIT: With that said, I shot a QT360 last year and really liked it. However I did switch do the SmartRest dropaway from NAP and couldn't be happier with it right now. If you're dead set on getting away from the 360 I would check out the SmartRest (retails around $95) or the QT2100 if you're not looking to spend as much money. Basically the same rest minus the micro adjustments.
